    I have had some non sticky degaussing copper pass as Bb . Granted it was thicker than pencil lead and free of any soldering or coating . I did a sony for a friend yesterday and got 4 lbs out of the degaussing cable alone . So,e yards are more lenient than others . My yard pays me all as #2 unless I have 10 lbs of BB or #1 .



    #1 ,#3 look clean to me . May pass as Bb . Depending on your yard requirements .
    #2 and #5 look like #2 copper . #5 is def a tv yolk
    #6 as is is going to be copper breakage or transformer electric motor price. You can break these down further or sell as is .
